Part 6 - Zerocarbonista - The Wind Car is on its way

The first thing I should say here is that this isnt the last episode of our little video series it cant be - we just havent finished yet. So expect Episodes 7 and probably 8 of 6 before long :)

Second thing to say is Ive got a new idea for a name. Im quite taken with it....

The Greatest MAN-Made Invention in the World!!!

Please bring this car to market, make it affordable and let´s SAVE our PLANET from vehicle polution, who knows an airplane with this technology will also come along... LOTS of powerful wind up there too and as the plane moves it becomes even stronger.

A Car that Recharges it self as it moves??? - 0% polution??? C'mon Folks, we still have time!!!

Hydrogen is the way...

Vince, shouldn't it be white and have a good name? instead of something dark and menacing? we kick evil's ass with good, not more evil : )

what gearbox is it using? it probably has straight teeth instead of skewed which is why it sounds a bit like reverse in a combustion car (reverse gear has straight teeth, rest skewed)

great build though. a lot can be done once you have money : )

@D1G17ALTR1PP3R it's a pretty fast golf cart though with substantial range : )

or can your car go 0-100km/h in 4 seconds like the tesla can?

@D1G17ALTR1PP3R : this car is the exact same thing as tesla. Therefore this ecotricity car is also a overpriced vehicle for stupid treehuggers.

with the scarcity of windpower in these early days, you'd need your car to be a battery on wheels...

i still think a solar panel should be thrown on top

The Tesla is an overpriced Golf Cart so rich men can be "Green Trendy"

Hey! Great idea!

But... Why are you driving a Mercedez???

You should be driving a Tesla or something like that.
